The objective of this review is to examine how the concept of plasticity is used in geophysical fluid dynamics. Rapid mass movements such as snow avalanches or debris flows involve slurries of solid particles (ice, boulder, clay, etc.) within an interstiti ...
The contributions assembled in the present volume proceed from the lectures of the 2009 ALERT Geomaterials School devoted to the Failure in the multiphase geomaterials. The multiphase behaviour of geomaterials used to be mainly considered from the point of ...
By means of a Gleeble machine, the flow stress at steady-state creep in an AA3103 aluminium alloy has been measured for temperatures and strain rates relevant for thermally induced deformations in DC casting. The strain rate has been determined by measurin ...
Piezoresistive pressure sensors using classical deformable structures such as membranes progressively run into difficulties at very high pressures (above 1 to 2 kbar), due to the decreasing ratio between the available sensing strain on the outer membrane s ...
The transition from sticking to sliding of frictional interfaces is a phenomenon of importance for many physical systems in nature as well as in engineering. This transition is marked by the occurrence of local slip events, often called precursors, which a ...
